All coming together...
Got the H&R springs on today which means I got my summer rims with the new tires on too! Haven't driven much yet today since, but so far it really handles better and braking is wwwaaayyy better. I will get pics up as soon as I can as the sun was almost gone when I finished. Also got the CD/DVD player in the mail today so just gota wait till the rest of the stereo accessories come to install.
Short list of Mods that are done as of now:
Cleared corners
HID's (5000K)
Grand Am GT Mirrors
Strut Tower Bar (front)
H&R Springs
MSR 17's With 225/45/R17 Talon Tires
Dual Exhaust (Grand Am GT Modified)
Blue L.E.D. Under Dash Lights
Small Sound System With Borrowed Sub (for now)
Cold Air Intake
I think that's all so far
Hopefull Small Mods for the Future (Possibly Before ASS)
L.E.D. Foglights
L.E.D. Driving Fog Lights
Grill Mesh (Silver or Black, undecided)
New 10" Sub
And probably more because once you start, it's hard to stop!
Install CD/DVD Player
Detail Car and Wax
PICS COMING SOON!!!

Here are some pics I've taken over the past week or so. They are not the greatest due to the weather and not being able to wash/wax/detail yet, but here they are anyways. Some will criticize and some will enjoy....like always lol.

Seeing your tire pics makes me feel good about getting H&R springs in the near future. Looking good brother.
How did you get the dual exhaust bumper?

Thanks for the compliment on the HU and yes I love my MSR wheels but they are getting old. I'm loving my H&R springs so far they handle well and ride isn't rough at all. I do need new strut mounts tho. Ttop- it was probably my thread and no I did it with a dremel and took my time then I got rearended and got a new bumper, but luckily the shop did it for me on the 2nd bumper. Yes the fuse tap worked great and everything works!
